Seagrapes
Uva de playa
Uva del mar
Coccoloba uvifera is native to coastal beaches throughout tropical America and the Caribbean. Common names include seagrape and baygrape. In late summer, it bears green fruit, about 2 cm (0.79 in) diameter, in large, grape-like clusters. The fruit gradually ripens to a purplish color. Plant is highly tolerant of salt, so it is often planted to stabilize beach edges; it is also planted as an ornamental shrub. The fruit is very tasty, and can be used for jam or eaten directly from the tree.
